Abstract
A system, a method, and a machine-readable medium for overclocking a computer system is provided. An example of a method for overclocking a computer system includes predicting a stable operating frequency for a central processing unit (CPU) in a target system based, at least in part, on a model generated from data collected for a test system. An operating frequency for the CPU is adjusted to the stable operating frequency. A benchmark test is run to confirm that the CPU is operating within limits.
Claims20
A method for overclocking a computer system, comprising:
- predicting a stable operating frequency for a central processing unit (CPU) in a target system based, at least in part, on an output of a prediction model generated from data collected for a test system;
- adjusting an operating frequency for the CPU to the stable operating frequency;
- and
- running a benchmark test to confirm that the CPU is operating within limits.
An overclocking system comprising:
- a processor to:
- generate a prediction model based on a benchmark test executed upon a test computer system, the test computer system comprising a first central processing unit (CPU) operating at a first CPU frequency and a first CPU voltage;
- predict a stable operating frequency for a target computer system by using the prediction model and input parameters received from the target computer system, the target computer system comprising a second CPU operating at a second CPU frequency and a second CPU voltage;
- and
- adjust the second CPU frequency of the target computer system based on the predicted stable operating frequency.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions that, in response to being executed on a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- predict a stable operating frequency for a central processing unit (CPU) in the computing device based, at least in part, on a prediction model generated from data collected for a second CPU in a second computing device;
- and
- adjust an operating frequency for the CPU to the stable operating frequency.
